NATALIE MERCHANT LYRICS - The Letter

"The Letter"



If I ever write this letter

The pages I could write

But I don't know where to send it

You have vanished

Heaven knows where you live

Heaven only knows



If I ever write this letter

Bitter words it would contain

Just an unrequited lover

Wishing she had never

Spoken your name

Had never known your name



But if I write this letter

The truth it would reveal

Knowing you brought me pleasure

How often I'll treasure

Moments that we knew

The precious and the few
